Tonight is my daughter’s hayride/bonfire/16th birthday party. (But her actual birthday isn’t until Dec. 23) It’s also the coldest day we have had this season. The last three Fridays have been perfect weather. Today’s will be horrible. I’m hoping not to freeze to death.

I think it was the combination of sweets, reading your blog at night, and a late bedtime (I’m a teacher = anything after 10pm is late). So I must preface by saying I’m not a psycho stalker and I didn’t mean to dream about you. BUT in the dream we were super friends and all I remember is: Brooke was adorable and heavy. We shared a chocolate cake layered with giant, ice-cream filled M&Ms….it was DELICIOUS. Happy Friday, thought I’d share this random tidbit from my life. :)

I just had an egg retrieval for ivf yesterday that we haven’t shared with anyone in real life, but I want to talk about it so badly so I’m going to mention it w cyber friends. It went really well, so even if this cycle doesn’t knock me up, I’m in a great place for next time. Anyway, I’m on the couch feigning sickness to my work, watching Hart of Dixie, mapping my running comeback (if it works and if it doesn’t – right now I’m stuck on the couch until I heal), and flipping through jcrew and Pinterst. I’ve been avoiding races for a while because of fertility stuff, but yesterday the docs kept asking if I ran a lot because they were initially worried about my low pulse. I was delighted to say “yes!” And they were like, oh it’s all good then!. Boom.

That’s it, you have inspired me! My son is a month or two younger than Brooke and we have not gotten on a book reading schedule….I’m getting some books today! :) 3 words…RAIN! Homework and yoga. (Taking a 30 day yoga challenge on youtube – I’m a major beginner – and I’m loving it!) Gonna be a good day!!

I need to watch Hunger Games this weekend! I had a late night at work pretty much every day this week (earliest I got home was 7pm, latest 945pm) so I need something to unwind, aka popcorn, Sour Patch kids and a Diet Coke!
